Refined StorageSimpler alternative to AE2 — FE-powered ME-style network with no channels
About
Refined Storage is the popular AE2 alternative. Same idea — disks of items, terminals to access, auto-crafting via Crafter blocks — but uses FE (not channels) for power, ignores channel-routing complexity, and has a simpler recipe progression. Crafter blocks teach the network multi-step recipes (similar to Pattern Terminals in AE2). RSInfinityBooster / RSLargePatterns / ExtraStorage / refinedstorageaddons are addons in this pack that extend disk capacity and pattern variety.
Things to do
- Controller + Disk Drive + 4× 1k Storage Disks + Grid → first network
- Crafter blocks for auto-crafting — write recipes on patterns
- External Storage for any chest → network-visible without disks
- Auto-craft chains: feed a Crafting Grid request and the network breaks it into steps
Getting started
Find Quartz Enriched Iron + Silicon (mod recipes). RS infrastructure is cheaper than AE2 in early game; pair with the Crafter for auto-crafting.
